Work Package 5 - CAPTURE-ENHANCED NEUTRON IRRADIATION (CENI) SAFETY

Lead beneficiary: Stockholm University, SU
Involved partners: UNIPV, UNITO, IRFMN, Raylab, UKESSEN, UKJ
Objectives:
1. to define the cellular and cytogenetic effects of low energy neutron irradiation alone and in combination with Gd/B enhancement agents on neuronal and glia cells;
2. to identify eventual toxic effects of low energy neutrons irradiation alone and in combination with Gd/B enhancement agents in the brain of C57 naive and APP/PS1 AD mice.
